    Hello, my husband and I both got Australia PR in May this year and we will move to Australia on next year .
    My son got the student visa in early Jan this year and he will study in Australia in Feb on next year.
    My question : which visa I should apply for my son ? 101 or 802 ? He is in HK now but he will go to Australia in Feb on next year . I am confused the my son should wait his visa outside Australia after he applied by 101 or he only can apply it by 802 after he entre Australia ?
    He will turning to 24 yrs old in September 2022 and he will be a full time master law student from 2023. I am thinking he can apply the child visa before he turns to 25 yrs old in September 2023.
    Looking forward to hearing from you . Thanks
